Ended up with the role of Gunther on "Friends" (1994) because he was the only extra who could work the cappuchino machine.

When he was 11, his parents died and he moved to Anderson, South Carolina, to live with his sister.

Tyler's signature peroxide blonde hair was actually accidental. The day before the Friends audition, one of Tyler's acquaintances, who studied to become a hairdresser, experimented on his hair. When Tyler showed up for the audition, the producer liked it so much they decided to keep it.
